마이리얼트립 앱 이용해서 예약했습니다. 얼리 체크아웃으로 예약하지 않았고, 바우처나 예약 화면에도 체크아웃 시간 12시라고 되어있는 것 확인했는데, 이것저것 서명하고 체크인 과정 다 하고 나니 9시 체크아웃으로 안내주셨어요. 많이 당황했는데, 바우처 보여드리니 12시까지로 변경해 주셨어요. 마이리얼트립에서 예약하고 정보가 잘못 넘어간 것 같다고 하셨어요. 9시 체크아웃에서 12시로 변경이 안 된 것인지 다음날 아침 외출 후 10시쯤 다시 방으로 올라가는데, 카드 키가 작동하지 않아 프런트에서 다시 등록해야 했습니다. 주차는 외부…

처음방문하고 편한한 룸환경으로 두번째 방문했어요! 두번째는 더 좋았어요^^ 옛스럽지만 정통 호텔 분위기가 편하게 쉬기 넘 좋습니다 근처 어디든 가기 편하게 위치하고 있습니다 추천합니다 굳이 단점이라면 냉장고 모터 소음이 귀에 살짝 거슬려요>< 이거 말고는 최상입니다 재방문의사 100% 입니다!!!!

디럭스 퀸룸 B
오래된 호텔이라지만 전혀 문제 되지 않습니다. 4인 가족 (중 1명, 고 1명, 성인 2명) 기준 가본 호텔 중에 가장 넒고 편했습니다. 관광지(경복궁, 덕수궁, 종로 등) 가까워 도보로 이용 가능하고 지하철 이용도 용이 합니다. 강북 관광 시 중요 거점으로 아주 좋아요. 조식은 soso 외국인 관광객이 더 많았던 거 같아서 (호텔 이름때문인지..ㅎㅎ 88올림픽 영향인지) 한국 속의 외국 같은 색다른 체험이였네요. 가족 여행시 또 이용하겠습니다~^^

디럭스 키즈 패밀리 트윈 [15:00 체크인](객실 only)
깨끗하게 잘 정리되어있어서 들어가자마자 기분이 좋았네요. 좀 오래된 호텔이라 주차장이 별도인게 불편했지만 객실은 괜찮았어요
